Hard to define 'hard', a few more I liked: (no ranking)
The Time Machine (both the Pal and the Wells films; quite different)
Dark City (1998, Pryas)
Forbidden Planet (1956, Wilcox)
The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951, Wise)
Fifth Element (hilarious, Besson, 1997)
Alien (Scott, 1979)
13th Floor (Rusnak, 1999)
Stargate (1994, Emerich)
Steamboy (2004, Otomo)
Movies made from famed series I'd REALLY LIKE to see:
Ringworld (Niven, a crime noone's DARED to try).
Some setting of Riverworld. (Farmer)
ANY of Neal Stephenson's SF books, esp. Snow Crash, Cryptonomicon, Diamond Age, Anathem.
(Not even the BBC? I mean, who expected Doctor Who to get THIS far?!)
There are at least a couple of Riverworld attempts. Haven't seen either
